WithAvengers: Doomsdayfinally rolling the cameras as of this week, fans are eagerly waiting to get a glimpse of Downey Jr.’s Doctor Doom in action. While time will tell who else is in the film,Mr. Vegas Officialmade anAvengers: Doomsdayconcept trailer showing Victor von Doom taking on some of the most classic Marvel heroes of all time. Check it out below:
TheAvengers: Doomsdayconcept trailer features Tobey Maguire’s Spider-Man, as well as Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine and one of the live-action Hulks, as they face Downey Jr.’s Doctor Doom wielding an infinity gauntlet. However, Jackman isn’t the only Logan variant to pop up,as Henry Cavill’s Wolverine (or Cavillrine) fromDeadpool & Wolverinealso pops up in the showdown.
What The Avengers: Doomsday Concept Trailer Means For The MCU Movie
As several stars have already been revealed fortheAvengers: Doomsdaycast,Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige has confirmed that there are more announcements on their way. Given the massive scope ofAvengers: Doomsdayand alsoAvengers: Secret Wars, it’s clear that fan expectations are higher than ever for the MCU. With a concept trailer like this, it’s evident that the MCU audience is expecting to see major Marvel icons that aren’t just from the Avengers-based franchise.
While they may not have been revealed yet,it would be shocking if Marvel Studios didn’t already have players like Maguire and Jackman locked in forAvengers: Doomsdayand/orAvengers: Secret Wars. Given that The Multiverse Saga is rumored to be setting up a soft reboot forthe MCU timeline, this may potentially be the last time some of these actors get to portray their respective Marvel characters. Whether or not the MCU may get another shot at the Cavillrine, however, is a bigger question, given that his cameo was more so for fun forDeadpool & Wolverine.
Our Take On The Avengers: Doomsday Concept Trailer
After seeing how powerful the MCU could make Doctor Doom through theAvengers: Doomsdayconcept trailer,it will be fascinating to see how far Marvel Studios will go with Downey Jr.’s version of the Marvel foe. If Marvel legacy actors like Maguire and Jackman were to come back forAvengers: Doomsday, it would fulfill a long-time Marvel crossover dream for fans, as the two actors represented the early 2000s era of superheroes on the big screen. Hopefully, more details onAvengers: Doomsday-including what other characters will be appearing - will begin to emerge as principal photography is underway.
